{{*COVER REVEAL*}} The Rub Down by Gina Sheldon

Luke
Stratton spends his days making clients moan in pleasure. His hands hold the
ability to drive a woman to the brink of ecstasy. As a rule, his professional
touch is the only thing he gives any female client. Until a Boston marathon
trainee seeks his services.

Bare skin

One year
after the tragic Boston Marathon bombing, Alexa Williams must overcome horrible
memories of that day. She struggles to put her fear aside to meet the challenge
of the run. A rigorous training schedule leaves her body aching, and with
Luke’s help, Alexa finds soothing release at The Rub Down.

Healing Hands

Will Luke
hold onto his rules and let Alexa go, or will they be able to cross the finish
line together?

“Harder,
Luke, harder. You know I love when you’re rough with me.” She squirmed under my
touch, her voice drowning out the soft background music. After two years in our
relationship, I was accustomed to her giving me directions.

“Tamlyn,
you know I’ll bruise you if I go at you any harder, and you won’t be able to
walk tomorrow.” I spoke in a low, even tone, trying not to disrupt our rhythm.
Every stroke of my fingers on her bare skin served a specific purpose. Tamlyn
liked it hard and fast, but I preferred giving it to her gentle and slow.

“Right
now, I don’t care. My body needs this. Needs you. Danny can’t give me what I
need anymore.” She opened her eyes to peer up at me. “I’m too used to how you
make me feel.”

“Oh, stop,
Tam. You and I both know that Danny’s good. I’ve never heard a woman complain about
him.” My hands glided over her smooth calves. “His style’s different from mine,
but he knows how to get results.”

Tamlyn
wasn’t the first woman Danny and I had shared. In fact, we often swapped
clients. In our line of business, it was common practice. We thought it was
beneficial to the women who came to us.

“I know,
but you know my needs and meet them every. Single. Time I see you.” She moaned
when I gripped her hips. “I hate when you have to leave town. I seriously can’t
survive without seeing you at least once a week.” Tamlyn tilted her hips to
increase pressure right where she wanted me. “I even asked my husband, and you
know I hate doing that. He tried his very best to do exactly what you taught
him, but I swear I only moan so his feelings aren’t hurt.”

“Derek
looked like he knew what he was doing when I taught him how to take care of
you.”

A few
months ago, Tamlyn brought her husband to see me. She wanted him trained to
satisfy her body’s needs in my absence.

“Now hush,
our time’s almost up, and I’m not through with you yet. I haven’t heard you
scream my name,” I said as I moved into position to finish her off.

To gain
better leverage for what I planned next, I placed my knee on the edge of the
table. As my fingers trailed her inner thighs, Tamlyn squirmed beneath me. This
was my favorite part, and I was going to make sure she enjoyed every second of
it. As I reached my destination, her moans grew louder.

Then the
door to the room slammed against the wall.

“You cheating bastard.” My girlfriend, Jennie, stood
in the doorway, red-faced and screaming at the top of her lungs. Before her
crazed presence registered in my mind, she lunged for Tamlyn.

All hell broke loose.

Gina
Sheldon is a devoted wife, busy mom of twin girls, and the proud owner of a
small business. She often travels the very streets of Boston she writes about
in her debut novel, “The Rub Down.” One thing she refuses to leave home without
is her Kindle. Their relationship borders on obsessive. As a beta reader and
blogger, Gina shares her love of books with others, and her love of words has
now carried her into the field of self-publishing. When she’s not reading or writing,
she can be found surrounded by family and friends, enjoying a glass of wine,
Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, or both.
